Newsham to race Power Maxed Chevy in 2015

Dave Newsham will drive for the Power Maxed Racing team in the 2015 British Touring Car Championship.

Last year's Jack Sears Trophy winner, Newsman joins the team for its first season under new ownership. He will drive a Chevrolet Cruze.

Newsham, who has been in the BTCC since 2011, raced with AmD last season.

"The teams' professionalism and its new ownership are fantastic," he said. "Adam Weaver and I have discussed our objectives at great length and we are both heading in the same direction.

"I believe we will have a great platform for success in 2015. There are some exciting plans that will be revealed over the next few weeks that will mean we are at the sharp end getting more exposure for our sponsors."

The team was run by BTCC racer Chris Stockton until last year, and is now owned by Automotive Brands, a parent company of Power Maxed.
